An excerpt from my usual witty commentary:
Having triumphed with a landslide win (hey, a 1 seat margin in the Senate and the smallest historical change in the House in a sixth year of a presidency is a mandate if they say it's a mandate!) the Democrats and DBM are now in full gloat mode. They are trumpeting their plans to "fix" the country and undo all of the rotten things that the Republicans did since McChimpy Reagan defeated Holy Jimmy the C. Now the masks are off and they can finally reveal what they really want to do and who they really are. And they control the agenda! Remember that. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
So, the die is cast, the dinosaur DBM has shown their true colors and they are thinking that they're going to get away with it. They are wallowing in their illusion of ultimate victory, totally ignoring what actually happened on election day. Even the most charitable interpretation of the election results shows an evenly divided electorate, yet they are operating as if the vast sea of peasants they think they represent has risen up and is ready to overthrow "the man" who has been keeping them down, totally ignorant of the fact the the DBM is "the man" to the vast majority of Americans. Oh, are they in for a let down!
The best that can be said about this latest transplant operation is that it hasn't fallen out yet. However, I have a feeling that this is proceeding exactly according to plan, but the last one was three years ago, so my mind has successfully edited out all of the bad stuff.
On the medical front, the pressure has come back up in my right eye so we're no longer thinking I might lose that right now. I even got a new contact lens for the other eye on Friday and that gives me great distance vision, thought he reading vision is really for the birds, but that can be solved with drug store "cheaters," so I'm really encouraged.As always, all prayers are much appreciated. However, I have to say that, as things go, my problems are pretty minor, so I encourage all to say their prayers for those in real need. I always feel sorry for myself with my problems, till I see some of the folks who my doctor is helping who are far worse off than I am, and that doesn't begin to deal with the folks who are out there putting their lives on the line for the rest of us, so I feel blessed, no matter my situation.
Hey...you deserve prayers as much as anyone.
You take your sight problems so matter-of-factly...when I get ticked if I have to change a contact when I am not in the mood!!!
I do pray for you often, Phsstpok...and I even have prayer time left for others...so you aren't getting off MY prayer list so easily...LOL
I LOVED the large font...I thought you made your POINT!!!LOL
Hello everybody and I hope you have a good day tomorrow. Congratulations to the winners and a silent prayer for rodgoy911 who is over worked and under loved.
I will be gone tomorrow but anticipate the good fight to go on.
One comment, however. I strikes me as strange, and yet typical when Democrats are involved, that the Baker report has so many leaks. One could logically assume the Democrats are getting previews on what's in it. This is not new. In the past, with numerous issues, the Democrats and old media seem to know more about reports and commissions than the general public.
I could be tactful about what's happening but I won't. In my opinion the media and Democrats are leaking these things so they can design the playing field before the actual information is released and people start talking about them. This includes pre-release hits against Bush and Republicans as well as staking out positions based on the upcoming reports.
The evidence will be IF Biden, and others, seem to have insight or information that one would logically realize is not out yet. These guys want people to believe they are clairvoyant and insightful. In reality, they cheat and are lying to the public.
